I've towed the trailer a few times now with the new permanently installed brake controller. The other day I made a 3 hour trip with trailer in tow. I reached my destination city and was driving through a busy 3 lane inner-city stretch when I realized I wasn't panicking every time I had to brake… Continue reading Hanging Out In Ozark, Alabama
Leaving The Homeland – Tales Of A Worthless Brake Controller
I left the Lena KOA Holiday on October 31 (when the campground closed for the season). With a 3 hour drive ahead of me, the plan was to get everything packed up, hitched up and be on the road by 9:30 - 10:00. Wouldn't you know it... I slept until 8am! After a quick cup… Continue reading Leaving The Homeland – Tales Of A Worthless Brake Controller
A Peek At My Tiny Trailer Kitchen
It was Friday morning and my fridge was bare. I don't like getting groceries on Friday (or even Saturday) mornings but I'd put it off and, if I wanted good grub, I had to do it. After making coffee in my favorite St Augustine Beach travel mug... I hopped in the van and made the… Continue reading A Peek At My Tiny Trailer Kitchen
Heat, Rain Storms, A Wet Bed and a Name For The Trailer
As I write this, the weather has cooled down and I've had the windows and door open. There's also been a nice breeze. I'm glad the stretch of 2000 degree temps with 500% humidity is over. Hopefully it stays away. Ok, ok. It may have only been 1000 degrees with 250% humidity but I reserve… Continue reading Heat, Rain Storms, A Wet Bed and a Name For The Trailer
The Night Of The Living Moth’s
I don't remember exact timeframes but, a while back, I had gone to the store to get a few groceries. At the store, I grabbed my usual produce, grains and whatever else I needed. Putting My Groceries Away - Or Not Once I get home, I normally put my boxed items in air tight containers… Continue reading The Night Of The Living Moth’s
First Time Camping In The Trailer Without Full Hookups
In July I spent a couple of weekends at the Mississippi Palisades State Park in Savanna, Illinois. The only amenity at my campsite was electricity. This was my first time camping in the trailer without full hookups. I know the in's and out's of not having full hookups when it comes to Van Life because,… Continue reading First Time Camping In The Trailer Without Full Hookups
My New Cozy Little Home On Wheels
These past several weeks I’ve been camping where my cell signal was weak and I couldn’t do much online. I use my phone as a hotspot (to get internet to my laptop) and there wasn't enough internet juice to log in to my blog and publish a post. A Lot Has Happened Recently This would… Continue reading My New Cozy Little Home On Wheels
Covid Vaccine and Other Necessities
This past month and a half or so I've been hanging around The Homeland area taking care of appointments and getting other necessary things done while I'm here. Avoiding The Spring Spraying One thing about being here in the spring is having to avoid farm fields being sprayed as farmer's prepare to plant crops. But… Continue reading Covid Vaccine and Other Necessities
Tennessee Adventures – Greenway Park and Edgar Evins State Park
I made it to Georgia to check out another climate control option and (hopefully) found a solution. It's not exactly the solution I was planning on but, because of my MCS, my options are more limited than I'd like and I had to consider it. At the moment, there's not much to share about the… Continue reading Tennessee Adventures – Greenway Park and Edgar Evins State Park
A Not So Pleasant Night – Climate Control Escapades
On March 16, I took Bella to the shop in Kingsland GA to get 2 recalls and a minor taillight issue taken care of. The shop told me it would only take "a couple of hours". So, I was expecting to be back at the campground in the early afternoon. FIVE HOURS LATER... Bella was… Continue reading A Not So Pleasant Night – Climate Control Escapades
